Her pregnancy announcement was overshadowed somewhat by Duchess Kate's growing bump and a certain royal wedding, but mum-to-be Zara Tindall was the star of the show at the British races yesterday.

Zara accompanied her mother, Princess Anne (the Queen's daughter) to the first day of the Cheltenham Festival in Gloucestershire.

A keen rider who represented Britain at the London 2012 Olympics, Zara competed at the race meet last year. She is also a patron of Magic Millions Racing Women, a charity which promotes racehorse ownership among women.

This time around though the Queen's granddaughter watched from the stands in a turquoise jumper and black coat after announcing in January that she's pregnant with her second child.

Her due date is believed to be during the British summer months, after Kate's third child arrives in April and Prince Harry and Meghan Markle get married at Windsor Castle in May.

Amber Rojas delivered her fifth baby in a water birth – and the 35-year-old mum soon realised something about her new arrival. Amadeus Reign Rojas – known as Ami – had Down syndrome. The profound moment was captured by Birth Unscripted photographer Amanda Gipson.

"As soon as I picked [Ami] up out of the water, I noticed her eyes were slanting opposite the way that my kids' eyes slant," Amber told People last month.

"I thought to myself, 'I think she has Down syndrome.'"

The midwife told Amber that it was likely Ami would need surgery due to her low resting heart rate. It's a common marker for new babies with the condition, who often need medical care.

Other markers include a flat profile, a tongue that sticks out a little more than usual, and hypotonia, or floppiness – something Amber noticed as soon as she held Ami for the first time.

When you're at a wedding, it's expected to shed a few tears as the bride and groom share their vows, but at Natalie Crabtree’s it was another set of vows that stole the show.

First shared with Love What Matters, Natalie detailed how her son, Rylan, had no solid father figure for the past five years.

She had witnessed her seven-year-old playing with other dads and her heart would break. While she had a few relationships over the course of those five years, nothing stuck and she simply couldn’t find ‘the one’ who was right for them; who’d love them both unconditionally.

But Natalie reconnected with an old school friend, Joe, and love quickly blossomed.

So when Joe and Natalie got married on February 17, 2018, they chose to add a twist to the regular wedding vows; the couple also wrote vows for their respective stepchildren.
